BBC board letter to the Culture, Media and Sport Committee concludes with a statement I agree with to my core:
“There is an increasing need for the public to be informed in a way that is impartial, truthful and is based on evidence they can trust. That is the sacred job of the BBC.”

If you don’t like the BBC, I suggest that you go to America and watch their TV for a day. It gives you a migraine. The BBC also keeps the standards of the other outlets relatively high. If you think we watch shit now, imagine it with no BBC. And they actually care about drama, children’s, factual.

Meta makes about $7 billion a yr from running ads for scams/banned goods, company docs show. Most comes from ads suspicious enough to be flagged by Meta’s warning system. But unless system determines it's 95% certain ad is fraud Meta won't ban it; instead it only charges advertiser a higher ad rate

I’m proud to have donated blood. 💉
The NHS needs new regular donors, especially those of Black heritage. If you’re 17–65 and healthy, you can give too, nothing scary at all.
My O- blood is rare and always required, it feels great knowing it’ll help someone who needs it. ❤️
